Kokomo Humane Society leaders are looking for people to care for most of the 109 small dogs seized from a central Indiana home last week. Director Jean McGroarty said all the dogs taken from the home on Friday survived and some have been placed in foster care. Eight of the dogs are at an animal clinic and may not make it. The family was using its house as a rescue shelter, but complaints led officials to the home, where they found what they called “deplorable” conditions.

The Shelby County Sheriff’s Department is searching for a woman suspected of robbing a Key Bank branch just before noon on Wednesday. The suspect, described as a female in her late 40s or early 50s, wore a red cap and a blue bandana over her face. She fled the bank at 12591 E. Southeastern Ave. in Pleasantview in a dark-blue Pontiac Grand Am with an undisclosed amount of cash. Police say the dye pack in the money bag exploded, which means the money and possibly the suspect’s car will be stained with red dye.
